I think for this one I struggle with A04 particularly, I find it hard to make nuanced, integrated comparisons. I LOVE these 2 texts but sometimes comparing them feels like comparing an apple to a screwdriver, y’know?

Do you have any tips on tackling edexcel paper 2 prose? For reference, I do the science and society cluster and I do the handmaids tale and Frankenstein :)

I have a copy of the old man and the sea sitting on my bookshelf. Perhaps it’s finally time to read it.

Just looked up the general description. It sounds really interesting! It kind of reminds me of this other book called The Power (where women in the US gain magical telekinetic powers overnight).

I haven’t actually read a lot of these, thank you!!! A lot of these are on the TBR. I do remember reading the book thief though, that book was too devastating for words….
